SportsLine horse racing writer Gene Menez has identified his selections for the turf race at Colonial Downs
Burnham Square can strengthen his case as the best turf horse in the country when he leaves the starting gate in the 2026 Arlington Million on Saturday at Colonial Downs in New Kent County, Virginia. Trained by Ian Wilkes, Burnham Square has six wins in 14 career starts and enters the Arlington Million on a three-race winning streak. For Saturday he has been installed as the 5-2 morning-line favorite in the Arlington Million odds. Dresden Row (7-2), Integration (4-1), Test Score (9-2) and Fort Washington (5-1) round out the top five choices in the seven-horse Arlington Million field. (Mercante reportedly will scratch.) Post time for the race is 5:52 p.m. ET.
